ROBOTS MAY BE INSPECTED AT ANY TIME BY THE
JUDGES.
Robots should be assembled prior to the USI
Lego Competition, however there will be time between rounds
for revisions.
Robots must be assembled using only the
pieces provided in the kits. For RCX, this is the Team
Challenge Set or the RIS 2.0 set. For NXT, this includes the
Lego Mindstorms NXT Education set. This does not include,
however, the box, tub, papers, or storage compartments, etc.
Only the LEGO elements of ONE KIT are to be
used per team.
No pieces may be modified in any way.
All robots must be fully autonomous. (No
remote control or outside interference allowed)
Robots must begin and end intact (in one
piece). If a robot loses and pieces, points may be deducted.
Leads or wires cannot be used to hold a robot together.
Teams are allowed only one robot to compete.
If any changes are required, this can be done between
rounds.

Teams must be ready to present their programming to the judges when they
compete. (Have your program saved on a floppy disk, USB
disk, or CD-ROM)
Programming is not limited to RoboLAB and Mindstorms NXT as
long as the team can produce a copy of the programming (via
printout) for the judges.
IR Towers will NOT be provided.
Teams should bring any software/equipment needed to program.
No programming is allowed within the competition room (TC
119). |
